Title: Signs Tell the Truth
Summery: Josie is on a date with Vaughn, when a big sign kicks then into action.
Chapter 3: "Why can't you see?" (The next morning)
Lucas opened his eyes the next morning to see that his glasses were off and something was in front of him. He thried to feel around for them. He thought he might have dropped them while he was sleeping, like normal.
"I guess Marshall took them off of me." He leaned over the figure and took his glasses off the side table, and placed them on his face.
Then he looked at the clear figure, and almost fell off the bed. It was Josie.
"This must be a dream." Lucas pinched himself, "Ouch. Guess not."
"Lucas, shut up!" Josie said, rolling towards him.
"Sorry, did I wake you up?" Lucas asked.
"Lucas, you practically tackled me while getting your glasses, and you're asking me if you woke me up? Wait why are you here, and in those pajamas." Lucas looked at his pajamas.He had a solid blue, but on the bottoms where a bunch of yellow ducks. He grabbed the nearest blanket, and covered up. His face started to turn bright red.
"Wait, I remember why you're here. You were waiting for me to come back for my date with Vaughn.I guess we both fell asleep, right?" he nodded.
The door then stared to open. It was Corrine. She was carring two pieces of toast, and two coffees.
"Hey, guys.I saw you two sleeping together." Corrine said handing each of them toast and a coffee.
"We were not sleeping together!!!" Josie and Lucas said together.
"Yeah, well, Lucas, Josie kissed you good-night." Corrine said.
"Really?" Lucas asked Josie.
"On the forehead. So what? It was a friend to friend kiss."
"So, if you were putting Corrine or Marshall to bed you would do the same, right?" He asked curiously.
"Usually go to bed before Corrine, and about the kissing Marshall while putting him to bed. Lets let Corrine answer that one..."
"Okay.I had to put Marshall...."
"What?" Marshall interruped, walking into the room. He was carring a pair of shoes and pants, which he throw at Lucas, "Sorry, Corrine, what were you saying?"
"Oh, nothing." She answered.
"Oh. Okay. Well, Corrine told my you were here, Lucas, when I asked her if she saw you. So I thought you might need that." Lucas got up and stared to put on the pants. He looked up. Everyone was staring at him.
"Can't a guy get dressed in his own...I mean stop looking at me!" Lucas said finishing putting on his stuff.
"Like i was saying...Lucas had his arm around Josie."Corrine said, then she let out a giggle.
"I did?" He asked Corrine. She nodded.
"Yeah, well.Marshall you should hear the things Corrine says about you in her sleep. Like this one time she said, 'Marshall has a nice..." Corrine by that time put her hand over Josie mouth.
"I have a nice what?"
"Oh, Marshall, you have a nice...set of eyes." Corrine said flustered, "Lucas, Josie says, 'Vaughn has a great six pack, and if you had one you would be..." Josie slapped her hand on Corrines mouth, but Lucas removed it.
"What did she say?" He asked.
"She said if you had a six-pack you would be perfect." A big smile grew on Lucas' face. He then looked at Josie and said, "Really? Did you say that?"
"I have no idea." That same grin wipped off of Lucas' face.
"Ok.Let's get back to the subject. Lucas why did you sleep here last night?" Marshall asked.
''He was waiting for to come back from my date with Vaughn. By the way...Thanks.I know that can from the heart, this maybe out of no where but, you can't just win me over like that." josie replied.
"Ok?" Lucas said confused.
"Well, I still like Vaughn, but I don't know. There was this sign. Whatever.I really don't know what to think anymore." Josie said rushing through every word.
"Josie calm down.Can I ask you something? Lucas is right here and it seems like he really likes you.Why can't you see that? To see someone who really cares about you...and they're right there...right under your nose." Marshall proclaimed.Josie raised her eyebrows at Marshall. But Corrine on the other hand stood up and walked over to Marshall and said, "Why can't you?"
She rushed out of the room.Josie went after her,not looking at any other person in the room.
Josie opened the door. Corrine was sitting next to the door. Her hand was barried in her knees. Tear were falling for her eyes to the floor. Josie shut the door behind her and palced herself next to Corrine.
"How could Marshall critisize you on not seeing someone that likes him, and that one peson being under your nose. When he is doing the exact same thing...to me."
"Well, Corrine maybe you should tell him you really like him.I do think he'll say he likes you back."
''I really don't think he likes me, or he would have said something."
"Like you did?"
"Ok, Josie, I get your point."
"Well how about we try this...Marshall, Did you know that Corrine liked you?" Josie yelled through the door.
"No!" Marshall yelled back, "Darn it!" Marshall and Lucas ran back across the room.
"How did you know they were listening?" Corrine asked.
"Oh, Corrine, I'm just gifted like that." josie said with a smile, "Come on. Lets get back in the room."
